The French Crisis.
CREW THREATENS 10 RESIGN IF BOuLANGRR REMAINS
IN The CABINET.
Paris dispatches say the failure OF NM. de Frey
cinet and Bowler to construct cabinet to accord
with the expressed wishes OF President Grevy
that Gen. Boulanger be not included In the minis
try, while not unexpected, has raised the tide of
public ciamor for termination OF the crisis to q
point very near to the danger line. The proionga-
tion OF the crisis has had very depressing eject
upon business, and many who were at 1rst inclined
to support NJ Grevy in bis opposition 20 the reten-
ton Of Boulanger now desire the reappointment
OF the military idol as minister OF war, seeing In
1t the most speedy way OF putting an end TO the
present situation OF uncertainty. Grevy "a
said TO have intimated that he would re-
sign should Boulanger continue in ONCE,
and it Is thought extremely probable. should he
do 50, that BoGlanger would be chosen president
way out OF the dilemma may, however, be
found in the undertaking OF n. Duclerc TO form q
cabinet which was announced last night. This
was an outcome OF q second attempt by Il. Grevy
to induce n. De Freycinet to undertake the task.
A dispatch from Berlin says Germany deeireA
rather than fears the retention OF Gen Boulangef
as war minister OF France, as she thinks that hts

from regaining the strong financial position ehe
formerly held, and that his vanity, which leads

do win AFFORD security against military surprised
